About the role:

This role is designed to help the teams operate smoothly, deliver on priorities, and stay aligned with business stakeholders.
• You’ll be the organizational backbone for the IT team: keeping initiatives moving forward, preparing and facilitating leadership forums, tracking key deliverables and vendor relationships, and supporting the IT Leadership with ad hoc priorities. When formal projects arise, you will step in to run them—ensuring coordination across cross-functional teams and timely execution.

• Help organize and prepare for SteerCo and Strategic Leadership meetings, including agenda building, materials preparation, and follow-up.
• Track and communicate key priorities, risks, and decisions to ensure accountability.
• Keep meeting notes, action items, and decision logs up to date.

Vendor & License Management

• Track user licenses across key IT vendors (ERP, CRM, Analytics, etc.) and ensure renewals, usage optimization, and compliance.
• Support contract renewals and vendor payment processes in partnership with Finance and Procurement.

Cross-Functional & Executive Support

• Partner with IT Leadership to support ad hoc initiatives and strategic tasks.
• Facilitate communication between IT teams and business stakeholders, ensuring alignment on objectives, priorities, and timelines.
• Serve as a central point of contact for IT-related coordination.
  
  

Project Management

• When formal projects are in flight (e.g., ERP rollout, analytics initiative, system upgrades), own project planning, execution, and reporting.
• Coordinate across functional teams, track dependencies, identify blockers, and drive to resolution.
• Ensure clear documentation, status reporting, and stakeholder visibility throughout project lifecycles.

Experience & Skills we value:

• 3–5 years of project management, IT operations, or program coordination experience.
• Experience in IT, enterprise applications, or data/analytics environments strongly preferred.
• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.
• Clear, confident communicator—able to work effectively across technical and business teams, including executives.
• Experience preparing leadership forums and managing stakeholder communications.
• Familiarity with project management tools (e.g., Jira, Monday.com, Confluence, or similar).
• Strong sense of ownership and proactive mindset—you don’t just track tasks, you help drive outcomes.

Nice to have and/or you’ll learn: 

• Experience managing IT vendor contracts, licensing, and renewals.
• Exposure to ERP, CRM, HRIS, and other enterprise application environments.
• Familiarity with data and analytics platforms (Snowflake, dbt, Looker).
